Abstract: A distributed energy conversion system may include one or more DC power sources and two or more inverters to convert DC power from the power sources to AC power. The AC power from the two or more inverters may be combined to provide a single AC output. A module may include one or more photovoltaic cells and two or more inverters. An integrated circuit may include power electronics to convert DC input power to AC output power and processing circuitry to control the power electronics. The AC output power may be synchronized with an AC power distribution system.

Abstract: A voltage doubler rectifier RF power harvesting system is provided having at least one power harvesting module with a voltage doubler rectifier that includes a DC voltage input and output, signal input, first and second floating gate transistors that are connected in series between the DC voltage input and output, and a gate control of the floating gate is connected to a drain of the transistor. The voltage double rectifier includes a first capacitor disposed between the input signal and the drain of the first floating gate transistor, and a second capacitor disposed between a ground and the drain of the second floating gate transistor. The system includes an input antenna and a transmitter with a transmitter antenna, where a full-wave peak-to-peak voltage of an incoming RF signal is rectified. The system also includes a powered device connected to the DC voltage output to utilize the rectified signal.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for substrate modeling are disclosed. In one disclosed method, for example, the substrate modeling comprises determining scalable Z parameters associated with at least two substrate contacts, constructing a matrix of the scalable Z parameters for the at least two substrate contacts, and calculating an inverse of the matrix to determine resistance values associated with the at least two substrate contacts. Computer-readable media containing computer-executable instructions for causing a computer system to perform any of the described methods are also disclosed.
